There is no reverse, <br />in the transmission of life, <br />while you can look back, <br />an wish you were young again, <br />only memories can be recalled, <br />to that period of time, <br />so don't waste your days, <br />looking back there, <br />wanting to go back an stay, <br />cause life moves forward, <br />ruled by the pendulum of time, <br /> <br />life has irreversible gears, <br />it turns only one way, <br />an never steps back, <br />the love of the youth, <br />is a chapter you can never repeat, <br />however, life doesn't end, <br />it moves forward, <br />like the waters of a river, <br />as the season's change, <br />and this, by the way, <br />is where the river bank is made, <br />life's journey is everlasting, <br />till your maker calls on thee! <br /> <br />so enjoy your life, <br />move forward and not back, <br />no regrets, <br />only one life to give, <br />cause the gears of life, <br />go round n round, <br />life's chapters, all combined together, <br />make it the book to read!<br /><br />Richard McClellan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-gears-of-life/
